And while she acknowledges that the process of the celebrity profile freaks her out (the "self-editing thing" and "the permanence of it is what's nerve-racking to me ... And the intimacy of it"), she opens up about her palpable affection for leading man and real-life boyfriend Garfield.

And if that isn't cute enough, the usually tight-lipped couple sweetly skirted around discussing their relationship on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" earlier this month. Garfield also publicly said that Stone approved of the way his "package" looked in Spidey's suit.

Born Emily Stone, the Arizona native convinced her parents to move to Hollywood by making a PowerPoint presentation at age 15. She's come a long way since then, being labeled online as a "bland basic bitch." She told the mag that she's happily adopted that self-deprecating moniker, which she stumbled upon when she Googled herself.

The Revlon spokeswoman and ascending fashion icon broke out in theaters in "Superbad," then became a contender by starring in "Easy A" and "Crazy, Stupid, Love." She's also working on Alejandro González Iñárritu's "Birdman" with Michael Keaton, an untitled Cameron Crowe project with Bradley Cooper and Bill Murray, and Woody Allen's "Magic in the Moonlight." She wants to play "truly bizarre characters," she said, to do theater and "someday" star as Sally in "Cabaret" -- a part she clinched but couldn't commit to because of "Spider-Man" scheduling conflicts.

The actress also said she'd be keen on starring in the second season of HBO's "True Detective."
